Hi There,

I'm Miranda, 26 and from England.

I have around 50lb to lose. I have been on the site just over a month, but haven't been sticking to it..... now I MUST lose weight. It's my other half's xmas party in exactely 1 month and I'd like to drop a dress size by then as my first mini goal.

I'm a vegetarian and I've just joined the local gym.

I'd really like some more friends on here..... people from anywhere are more than welcome, but I'd really like some English/European friends as i've noticed that the time difference often means I 'miss' my American friends posts.

Please add me!

M

    I am also a Brit - but I do live on the other side of the ocean - Canada to be exact. If you would like an over seas buddy - make me your friend. A dress size in a month .... with your determination - you will do it!

    Hi
    I'm from the UK but now living in France. I have re connected with this programme as I joined then fell by the wayside. I have 12 kilos to lose and am struggling to get motivated. Living in a rural area there are no gyms handy and walking is great but can get pretty boring on your own all the time.

    Hi
    I had similar goals to you and live in Hampshire, England. I started with 60 lbs to loose and just goined the gym for the first time a few months ago. I've got about 20lbs to go. This site is a great help, and giving and getting regular encouragement from my mfp friends is really motivating!
    Feel free to add me, amd good luck:flowerforyou:

    Hi,

    I am from Belgium and I want to loose in total 66 lbs, more is better, but better to set a goal I can succeed in.
    I already lost about 22 lbs on 16 weeks. But this is with support of a dieticien in the hospital.

    I have to loose weight so I can get easier pregnant and for a surgery.

    So if you like, you can add me as an buddy.

    Hello!

    I am new to using the online site and would love some new friends too :) Not even sure how you add friends yet - I have only been using the iphone app so far.

    Hope you are getting on well to reach your target!

    I'm from Wales and like you are keen on finding new friends from the UK because it is easier in terms of time zones and when we have open diaries it is easier to know what others are eating and getting tips from their food diaries. Mine is open to my friends and they are welcome to see what I eat. So feel free to add me if you like.
